Directions:
In a medium bowl, cream together butter and brown sugar. Stir in vanilla. Combine whole wheat flour, all purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Stir into creamed mixture alternately with milk. Cover and chill dough until firm.
Preheat oven to 350º
Grease cookie sheets. Work with 1/3 of the dough at a time, keeping the rest refrigerated. On a lightly floured surface, roll dough out to 1/8 inch thick. (you want them really thin so they come out crispy). Sprinkle with cinnamon/sugar mix and roll into dough. Cut into rectangles, or use cookie cutters. Place 1/2 inch apart on cookie sheets.
Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until crisp. Edges will be golden brown. Remove from baking sheet to cool on wire racks.

Personal Notes:
In place of 1 cup wheat flour you can use 1/2 cup ground flax seed and 1/2 cup wheat germ.
Dough does not need to be really cold.
